Edith Piaf was one of the most greatly loved singers of the twentieth century. From the start of her exceptional career in the 1930s, her waif-like form and heart-wrenching voice endeared her first to the French, then to audiences around the globe. As she moved from her youth singing in the streets to the glamour of the Paris music-halls, Piaf formed lasting friendships with such figures as Maurice Chevalier, Jean Cocteau and Marlene Dietrich; she wrote many of her own songs, aided the Resistance in the Second World War, and mentored younger singers like Yves Montand and Charles Aznavour. Yet her path to stardom was full of tragedies - the death of her daughter in infancy; the death of Marcel Cerdan, her greatest love, in a plane crash; her many illnesses, affairs and addictions, all of which nourished her passionate performances and strengthened her enduring bond with audiences. In this mesmerising, definitive new biography Carolyn Burke gives us Piaf in her own time and place, illuminating through sympathetic readings of sources hitherto unavailable both the charm and the pathos of the 'Little Sparrow' who enchanted generations and still enthralls us today.

'C’est l’amour qui fait rêver.' Édith Piaf, de son vrai nom Édith Giovanna Gassion (1915-1963), est bien plus qu’une chanteuse de music-hall et de variétés. Celle qui fut très tôt surnommée 'la Môme Piaf' est l’incarnation même de la chanson française. 'La vie en rose', l’'hymne à l’amour', 'La Foule' sont aujourd’hui encore des chansons interprétées dans le monde entier. Au-delà de toute mythologie – l’enfance pauvre à Belleville, sainte Thérèse lui redonnant la vue qu’elle avait perdue, l’usage de la morphine, ses nombreuses histoires d’amours avec Cerdan, Montand, Moustaki, etc. –, Albert Bensoussan nous dévoile une femme engagée dans son temps, forte et fragile, prenant tous les risques, surmontant toutes les douleurs, dont Cocteau affirmait qu’il n’avait jamais connu d’être moins économe de son âme, 'qui ne la dépensait pas, mais la prodiguait et en jetait l’or par les fenêtres'.

At the age of 26, Théophanis Lamboukas meets Edith Piaf, in January 1962. He is to become her second husband and the duo will perform her last big hit, 'A quoi ça sert l'amour?'When the star's secretary, Claude Figus, introduces them to each other, Théo is so dazzled by 'the Little Sparrow' that he is speechless with emotion. Smitten, Edith confides to Figus, 'I want to see your friend again so I can find out whether he's as smart as he is good-looking, because he hasn't said a word all evening.'They are driven to see each other again and Piaf encourages Théo to take up a career as a singer. She invents his stage name, Sarapo ('I love you' in Greek). They form a couple in life and on the stage, until Piaf's death on the 10th October, 1963. Théo, her last love, joins her seven years later, victim of a car accident.Their wonderful and tragic story is evoked here by Christie Laume; the singer's last months as they've never been revealed before.
